[b]For sale[/b]: one [url="http://www.billfitzmaurice.com/Omni10.html"]Bill Fitzmaurice Omni 10[/url] cabinet, light and superbly built by BC's own Andy Martin.

[b]Spec[/b]: power handling of 500 watts, 8 ohms (2 Eminence Beta 16 ohm drivers in parallel), weighs 22 kilos. It's 26" tall x 20" wide x 16" deep (or 66 x 51 x 41 cm). Wiring: GK amps speakon bi-wire input, full range jack and full range speakon inputs.

[b]Condition[/b]: the cab is in excellent used condition, only used at home and a few rehearsals. When not in use, I've always kept it covered to keep dust (and the claws of Smilla - see last photo) away from the carpeting.

[b]Sound[/b]: BFM designs are highly rated, efficient, well engineered cabinets. Do a search on here, Talkbass, Finnbass or the BFM forum and you'll see nothing but positive comments about the Omni 10's performance. I don't know what bass you play, what head you use, how you play or where you play, so I'll refrain from using adjectives like 'punchy', 'loud', 'hi-fi' or 'old school'. Whatever you put in, this cab reproduces that faithfully in spades.

[b]Price[/b]: I'm looking for offers around [b]£230[/b] and ideally cash on collection from my home in SE London; you are very welcome to try this out over a cuppa. I will courier the cab if I have to, this will cost an extra £30 or so (precise quote to be obtained). Bank transfer is fine, add 3% if you want to use Paypal. Why am I selling? I gig with Sibilla using EBS Microbass II DI'ed into PA, I don't drive and I'd rather a BC'er was doing this cab justice (the cash would be quite nice too). I am going on holidays on 4 October so am looking to move this on before then.

PM me with any questions you have, see my signature below for feedback and thanks for looking.

Doug

Thread hijack: How well do the Titans work with bass then? Considering the monolithic look of a T48 for doom. Is there any issues with the bass speaker being effectively many feet behind the top cab from the horn length?
